When rest is taken on the right side, the
body is placed where the foo2 era vita tcs more
easily out of the stomach into the intestine;
and the weight OF the stomach does not com,
press the upper portion of the intesbines
To show how difficult it is for doctors tc
agree, their opinions on the proper position
during sleep may be continued One oil
them maintains that lying aat on tho back
with the limbs relaxed would seem to secure
the greatest amount Of rest for the muscular
system. This Is the position assumed in the
most .exhausting diseases, and it is generally
hailed as token of revival whesl the patient
voluntarily turns on the side. s.esa;}ins with
arms thrown over the head is to be doi,;'e
| Gated, because it creates tendency to cr,,snT
and cold in the arms, and sometimes seems tc
cause headaches and dreams. On the Other
hand, a physician says that sleep should DC
taken with the face downward Lying with
the great weight OF the stomach, heart, in.
testines and other organs pressing on the
numerous nerves about the spine, must il
time work injury. Even the half weight, as
when the person lies On his side, must have
it's bad effects, it is said. 1Tha spine aud
nerves are also abnoTmalli treated By the
common way Of resting. Sleei,in5 with the
face downward is called the natural way.
Again, it is claimed that a really healthy
person does rot Keep in one position ell night
He rests. Oh ora side and then on the Other
and probably sleeps on HIS back and in rloli
fications OF these positions. Physicians say
that it Injuries the liver to lie constantly OF
the right side, is bad for tho heart to Liza OF
the left sitle; and most people have the night
mare or sleep too he,avil il they rest on The
back. AT the military school in Paris Ink
students ARE ordered to sleep on the rig lit side
and the same rule ii in force an Fest Point.
! doctor recommends /. position during
sleep III which the feet will be elevated about
eight inches above the heaa---thA habit can be
